#wl005 British Ale
SWMBO requested a honey ale, something like a cross between Honey Brown and New Castle Brown Ale. Not having the requisite knowledge to design my own recipe from scratch, I borrowed this recipe from 3rdwdr and made a couple of modifications. I substituted Marris Otter for the 2-row and knocked it down to 8 lbs. I also added 1 lb. of Honey Malt. I also knocked the NB hops down to 1.0 oz. Other than that, I stayed fairly true to 3rdwdr's recipe, with all times and temps being the same.
My OG was a bit higher (1.060) than the original recipe, but I am not complaining. Perhaps my efficiency was just higher than 3rdwdr's; I don't know.
I'll post more when I taste it the first time..
